3CR12 (1.4003) v 430 (1.4016)
(OP)
Hello
Looking for advice on which material would be most corrosive resistant in an environment where it is in contact with a liquid with a pH of 4.0 but is also being dried out periodically. I would also suggest that the liquid is likely to be around 50 Degrees C in temperature.
Thank You.

The lower Cr grade has some advantages, easier to weld, tougher, but you give up noticeable corrosion resistance in return.
